- Remarks
- provenance: Attribution of unregistered head Hearst 6-19808 to "E of G 1171" based on some photo register entries; attributed to GW 24 in photo archives (mounted print card caption); no in situ photos or object registration records available to confirm either of these attributions, however wadi cemetery attribution seems the less likely. Attribution of unregistered head MFA 47.1744 to "G 1225, chapel" based on photo register entries for C11952_OS, C11953_OS, C11954_OS; in situ photo C11133_OS attributes it to G 1226; no distinctive architectural feature in C11133_OS and no object registration records available to confirm either attribution.
